Default Time to learn how to troll

Went out today with the mortgageman. We figured we would get a late start, let the wind drop out and fish the outgoing with the west wind. Great plan, not. After hobbling together enough clams for the afternoon we set off. Missed the good morning clam bite as we could only find one short bass courtesy of Eric.

We tried trolling for a little while as the radio was abuzz with peeps killin em on 25"s. I have two on the boat but just couldn't get it right. Speed, depth, action. Whatever, we couldn't elicit a strike. Sal made it sound easy. I guess I just need to keep trying, so I left the boat down there and will try again tomorrow.

Gonna go early and fish the incoming with the light east wind. Think I'll try more line out and greater speed.
